    I was under calories, like under 1200 calories two days ago. I mowed the lawn and just didn't eat enough all day. Then I wasn't hungry after dinner.
    Yesterday I was famished at dinner time. I have been craving steak for a while now and broke down and bought some (not from the butcher either) from a store that has edible steak. (yes, I am a steak snob)
    I ate 12 oz of steak and mushrooms for dinner. I still was under calories because of my swimming.
    And... I hit my low weight I hit the day before...
    I guess when your body is craving something (not sugar), maybe you need to eat it. I must have needed some iron. I knew that fish was not going to cut it last night.

    My son got the volunteer position at the Animal Humane Society! I feel bad for ever doubting he would get it!! They picked 15 kids out of 50. I am so proud of him. He also got some prize from PETA for all of the vegan petitions he has been signing. He has strong convictions, like his mom. They are just different than mine.

    Every once in a while I think about having a piece of cake or some frosting. The thought goes away, but if there is cake on tv, I think about it. I am going to eat a lot of food on Mother's Day when I am out to brunch with my older son. Maybe that will just kick start my metabolism!

    Have a great week everyone!

    I am calling this past weekend the "lost weekend" and not in a good way. If it wasn't nailed down, I ate it. Back to clean eating this week. I wrote down a couple of my goals and referred to them throughout the day. "I will be confident in my ability to lose weight" (That's the 1st one). I feel your pain @aleahurst.
